Signature Dishes
The Dark Side Mudpie is one of the anticipated cake by me and my friends. And when they served the cakes, it look quite pretty and we started taking picture of it. But it melt quite fast therefore we tucked in after that. It has layer of vanilla and chocolate and the topping is with chocolate syrup and cocoa powder. It is quite big portion too so you can share it around with your friends after a hearty meal there.

Wanted to find out whether this outlet has the same standard like the one at Paragoon Shopping mall, so decided to give it a try during one of my dinner hour. The restaurant is equally cosy and quite comfortable and the service staffs are also quite friendly as well. Have tried their tomato veg soup and was equally pleased with the nice fragrant flavour from the tomato paste used in it and the texture is thick and the soup is quite juicy and not too sweet as well. The vegetables in it are also very fresh and crunchy too.

my girlfriend wanted to try at this cafe since it looked kind of cozy but when we sat down and looked at the menu carefully then found that there was not much things that we would like to try from there. nonetheless we managed to squeeze out something to order from the menu and i ordered the beef stew with rice. when i saw the rice portion we were shocked, is barely half a bowl of rice, i bet not enough even for a small kid. but the beef stew was not bad, quite tasty but the sauce was too salty so we kept drinking water after that

My friend and I chose this restaurant because it wasn't packed even on a Friday night. So,we easily got a table there. They were a bit understaffed so we had to wait a bit for the waiter to take our orders. While waiting, I looked around the restaurant and noticed their disturbing puppy photos on the wall. I don't know understand the reason why they would choose that kind of decor. Anyway, the waiter approached us and took our order. I had the meatball spaghetti because the menu said that it was one of their signatures.As expected, had to wait a while for our order. But it was worth it because their serving was big enough for 2 not-so hungry people. Sauce was very generous, and it wasn't sweet. I like how the red sauce tasted of tomatoes and cheese. =D The meatballs seemed like they were baked, I would've preferred it to be crispy on the outside. But overall, it was a good meal. I will defiintely come back soon.

https://thechosenglutton.wordpress.com/2011/06/19/big-o-cafe-restaurant/We’re probably thinking the same thing – why Big ‘O’ Interestingly, being the N.Y.D.C.’s sister restaurant (and conveniently located right across N.Y.D.C. at Wheelock Place), they’ve named this cafe/restaurant after their famous cheesecake, Big O Cheesecake. I’ve never noticed this before today (maybe it’s because they’re being overshadowed by the N.Y.D.C. every time I past the area) – only decided to try this when scrolling through the list of restaurants over the net.Mozzarella Sticks ($8.60++) :: It’s 2.5 sticks per person if you share it between two, like I did (we were drawn to the same starter upon looking at the menu). Nicely breaded, the sticks are to my liking, thanks to the thick and elastic mozzarella cheese in the wrap. I especially like the kind that the cheese elongates as you pull it away from your mouth. Yum. Also, it comes with the typical tomato / salsa kinda sauce.Spiced Duck ($19.95++) :: A very typical duck confit, in my opinion. Up till now, I have yet to taste a duck confit that is outstanding and isn’t ‘gelat‘. A slice or two of this is fine. But well, the mashed potato that comes with it helps you in completing the course – that’s the beauty of sides. Hah.Bacon Wrapped Chicken Leg ($17.80++) :: Again, the same problem as above (why does it seem like a recurring problem for this restaurant) – ‘gelat‘. But it isn’t as bad. I love bacon done this well (non-crispy), and the chicken’s tender. I guess it’s the BBQ (if I’m not mistaken) sauce that spoils it. All in all, it’s just another dish, nothing to rave about.Spike ‘D’ ($5.95++) :: Very popular amongst the crowd, we decided to join the club. If you’re a durian lover, this simple-looking cake is for you. Sheltered with a coat of chocolate, the durian in it is a twist of taste for you in this dessert course.The Dark Side Mudpie ($10.95++) :: The highly anticipated fully chocolate-filled and topped mudpie turned out to be a huge disappointment. Well as they say, the higher your expectation, the bigger your disappointment. This was exactly the case. As a huge chocolate lover, I was eagerly awaiting for it to be on my table. The first bite and it was only ordinary. As compared to its sister company’s mudpie, this needs a whole lot of improvement. So if you want a better mudpie, just hop across the aisle to NYDC.With the payment done with POSB/DBS Card, we’ve received a $10 discount voucher. I’m still sitting on the fence on if I’ll make a return to the restaurant.
